I live in a small town with limited beer selection. However, the Save Mart in town has good stuff because the girl who orders their beer is awesome. She always manages to talk distributors into getting her a case of something rare-ish. Yesterday she told me she will no longer be able to do...

Morebeer has them in stock now. Price seems reasonable IF the pressure kit isn't too bad. Pressure kit won't be in stock until sometime in July.

It would be helpful if I could take out the partition in my top freezer refrigerator. Does anyone know if I would be cutting into refrigerant lines? Generally speaking. Fridge is 15-20 years old. Also, if there aren't lines and I can remove the partition, are there any other potential issues...

What do you use for temp and humidity control? I can see a time approaching when I will out grow my chest freezer cellar and am contemplating other options.

I totally agree about the size. I wish they made one that could do 10 gallon batches. Maybe if it is succesful they will come out with a new model.

What are your initial thoughts on quality and design? If you are in the US where did you get yours?

First year growing hops. I'm still a bit confused about whether or not to cut back, but it seems like I see more people saying to let everything grow first year, which is in contrast to what I had initially thought. Point is I did not plan enough ropes for all the bines to grow and I'm...

That seems to be the only option right now, but yeah way too expensive on the shipping. The price in Austrailia is totally doable. I'm hoping that since more beer will get them in bulk the price won't go sky high...

I was told by morebeer that they are expecting to have them in June. They did not have a price estimate though

Not a scientific experiment, however, I was given 3 barrels (55 gallon drums) of honey that are over 20 years old. The barrels are food grade and were sealed during their storage. Kept in an insulated, but not climate controlled warehouse in the central valley. Still taste like honey. I have...

Second this. I think all of us who TIG weld have looked into this. The funnel just doesn't exist at a price point that would be worth it. Only reason to make your own is to say you made your own (and likely spent more than the cost of getting a mass produced one from craigslist). But if you...

If so would you reccomend it? Thanks.

Yeah, that is the hard part. Supposed to let mead sit AT LEAST 6 months if not 1-3 years. I spent the last year making some test batches and found that I like this yeast best. However I won't know if the current batches are getting worse until it is too late. Aw well though, I'm pretty sure it...

Haha. Doesn't really matter that it is mead. Just takes out some other variables. Your info about yeast is useful, thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and experimentation :)

Probably should have mentioned this is for mead. I brew beer as well, but I was given over 100 gallons of honey and decided to make a crap load of mead. Not really worried about overpitching as my OGs are going to be high, like 1.1-1.3. Also, the yeast strain I'm using barely makes any foam and...

I am going to be making the exact same beverage over and over again. I have 3 kegs converted to fermenters that I want to cycle through. Since they are not conicals I have no way to collect the first yeast to fall out and will have to reuse ALL the yeast left in the keg. I have heard that...

April Fools was last week. Good one though :) haha

First sprout came up!

I used to sell brew stands and sanitary welded kettles (going to school now and no time). Even though I am not actively selling anymore, it seems like sales have slowed. Has anyone else noticed this? If so do you think it is because the market has changed, or because there are more affordable...

The box is off the ground cus it's the best way to do it! Haha. I built it for veggies originally, but hops will be way more rewarding. The person I bought the rhizomes from had $4 ones that were probably like the "sticks" you are talking about, but my understanding is that the bigger the...
